I haven't been able to get on the treadmill or ride all week long, with appts for my MIL, and things going on with my ds and school, oh and theres that menial task of having to clean house, do laundry, cook, dishes ect....

My biggest problem I think with losing weight is this inconsistancy, whether it be biking and finding the time, or getting on the treadmill. Yesterday I was fixin to get on the treadmill, and the teacher called from the school and I had to have my son back up there asap for the science fair. DS never brought a thing home letting me know he was going to have to be there after school yesterday. I was so upset with him and I was in the middle of getting dinner started and my dad was coming over so by the time we got back, I didn't have the time.
I'm trying to work in learning to run along with my biking and it's not happening.

My DH tells me, "I can't believe you can't find 30 minutes during the day to exercise", well it's not just the 30 minutes though. I sweat profusely when I exercise so you have to add the time cooling down before I can get in the shower, then the shower time, and getting ready time, if I have anywhere to go or even if I don't because I stink.
I just can't seem to find a balance. I'm a SAHM so you'd think that I would have all the time in the world, but I take care of all my MIL's appts, grocery shopping, lawn mowing and anything else she can't do (she's 84) then I have my mom that I have to do for ocasionally, and then my DH and DS and the house and my own things to do.
Then when I get in the rut of going a week without exercise I have to force myself to get my butt back into it.
Excuses, excuses, excuses, I know, but it's a real problem for me trying to balance this out and I don't know how. Unless I get up at 4:30 everymorning so I have time to get showered before the day starts, but then that puts biking on the back burner.
If I worked I would never be able to commute unless I worked where they had showers. I mean I am literally drenced by the time I get done, so there is no going anywhere.
I'm going to go ride my bike today and hopefully tomorrow but next week my MIL has several appt's again, so it will throw me back into that loop.
Thing is girls, I feel so much better when I exercise whether it be the bike or the treadmill, so I don't understand how I can make this so hard, and I know I am the one making it harder than it needs to be.

I also get very resentful sometimes because of my MIL because I feel like I don't have a life because of her. I couldn't even go back to work if I wanted to because she would have no one to help her. MY DH works so much overtime to make ends meet for us and us to be able to have some extra so he doesn't have the time to take much of the responsibility over either.
She lives alone, but is about 300 yards up the road from us so we are right here, but she just can't do for herself much anymore. Or doesn't try.
Don't get me wrong, I don't take it out on her by any means, she can't help it either, but at times I just want to run away from everyone cause there is no ME anymore.

Okay, that was a pity party long story wasn't it. Sorry, I just really need help in trying to balance some of this so I have some time for me to exercise. Do any of you girls have tight time contraints like this? Of course you do!! See I am acting like I am the only one with problems!! What do you do?
I think my biggest help would come if my DH would just tell MIL to hire someone to help her. I have been doing it for 4 years now, I need a break. Maybe my attitude needs to change. Be brutally honest here girls, I am not senetive and I probably need to here it.
